Scicche meets LuWei!

It is time to continue to present you brand new designer with amazing ideas who decided to start collaborating with us at Scicche. Today we want you to meet Lu Wei, a young and talented designer coming all the way from Taipen (Taiwan): Scicche meet LuWei!

LuWei, as you will read in the interview is a designer with a background in engineering and that is something that you can easily tell by looking at the first product we decided to bring to the Italian market. They are a series of rings, called Clamp Rings, that can be “build” directly by the customer and fully personalised by changing the screws or part of the ring. You can choose the colours, the materials or just the finish of the iron, the result will always be an amazing ring! And it is suitable also for men, something that we were actually missing in our wide catalogue. Moreover… you should see the packages: so fun!

But … our collaboration is also starting with another piece: the “Rubber Barber”! These are simple erasers, that for sure will make you smile. Each one has a face at its center, surrounded by a square of color, which as the user erases, gradually creates various funky hairstyles, depending on how you work it. This process not only results in a happy interaction between user and the eraser, but also reminds people to use their imagination, and that sometimes mistakes can bring humour! Aren’t they lovely? Perfectly for kids… and grown up kids…just like us at Scicche !

Do you want to know more about Lu Wei? Here after you will find a series of questions taken from the Proust’s questionnaire on our new designer.
